How would the necessary scrolling to follow the leading edge of the thread be carried out? Manually?

It's art.

Well, it'd be a still life once the thread descended below the bottom of the frame which would be about, oh, 10 minutes elapsed time, or 120 frames (8 seconds of playback [at 15fps]), on an average thread during a busy time.

I'm talking about all the other ideas, like time lapse the recent page or the overview. Watch as things cycle, recycle and pop up.

Boring, pointless and stupid. That's okay. A lot of other art is too.

I'm sorry Jutta, if you thought I was trying to pass off crap as art.

Waugs, yes I'll give you that.

Po, true it doesn't unfold like a flower.
